No Skips with Adalita

Adalita is a proper rock icon!

Bursting onto the Australian music scene in 1991 as the founding member and principle songwriter of legendary alt-rock band Magic Dirt, Adalita has been an inspiration for the next generation of Australian female artists, who saw themselves in her.

Following on from fronting Magic Dirt, she’s helmed solo projects – releasing her first solo album Adalita in 2011 and later All Day Venus in 2013 and Inland in 2022, amidst film composing, mentoring and a myriad of other projects.

Recently, Adalita has been touring with Australian rock supergroup Bleak Squad, a collaboration between Mick Turner, Mick Harvey and Marty Brown.

In today’s episode, we’re encoring a chat Pam Boland had with Adalita earlier this year about her love of the Melbourne music scene and the local songs that she wouldn’t skip.

Adalita’s No Skip songs: 

Dream Step – Two People

Michael Beach – I Never Had Enough Time With You

Daisy Killborn – Northern Wind

Charm of Finches – Clean Cut

Slow Motion Pictures – Hollywood Won’t Come To You.
